Ok so the next 4 pages, 28, 29, 30 and 31, by Joel Gomes who is also like Vania, from Portugal. And I won’t go into all of Joel’s letter but just to say a couple of things he wrote and I encourage you to read it, because Joel is actually a really good writer. He is starting like when he was 17, the show was on and how he, unlike so many of his friends, instead of going out partying on Saturday night, he would stay and watch the show and he thought it was a little strange. He says “I grew up in front of the small screen and it only got worse after I got my first VCR, so the concept of a new TV show about a man that could become anything being chased by a secret organization was too appealing to ignore. Besides, I was seventeen then and Andrea Parker was… well, Andrea Parker.” Well Joel let me tell you what, Andrea Parker really was Andrea Parker and if you had been there on seventeen your heart probably would have gone as pitter patter as mine did every time she walked on stage. She made us all feel seventeen.

One other thing he writes which I really loved is that, you know, he basically decided because of a line in episode Every Picture Tells a Story, where Sydney,where Jarod said that, I’m sorry, where Jarod said to Miss Parker, “Sydney raised me to believe my mind could take me anywhere. ”Indeed it can.“

And that’s really what we want now, what we want the novels to be and the continuing saga this all thing will be. So we’re glad you’re… We love it and everything from you and I think Joel writes some of the best reviews for our books. And I also want to say one other thing. Joel has written. Joel is actually a Pretender.

“I’ve worked as a locksmith, a painter, a tourist guide, store manager, event planner, a librarian, I wrote and published novels, short stories, chronicles, TV series, movie scripts, short scripts, plays, radio scripts. I did all this and I know I can do much more.” Wow! You should come over here and talk to us Joel because you’re saying here “thank you for keeping the dream alive” but you could possibly keep ours alive for many many years to come. Thanks Joel.

A project made from the fans of the Pretender, after the announcement that the Pretender would be back. On the anniversary of the Pretender, on September 19th 2013, the fans gave us this amazing file, containing art, letters, and we were thrilled with the love we received. Now it’s time to thank them back.
